When "the leadership of our nation" decides on a policy of dispossessing an ethnic group of its property "we" will obviously "support and sustain it." Or if the policy in a time of crisis turns out to be building ovens and shoving innocent people into them, well, I guess "we" will all have to do our part to support and sustain the decision of our leaders. It all makes sense now.isaac stanfieldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05315287677097105667noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3548756252874667927.post-65808855757058903902013-05-27T10:33:24.932-06:002013-05-27T10:33:24.932-06:00Luke 25, awesome!

I suppose it is tied to our belief in Zion- perfect unity. <br /><br />I think it is supportable that Mormons just get completely carried away with Zion as group-think. I think the concept of Zion itself has its redemption in a much more complex definition of "of one mind and one heart" - or that the mind and heart of the Zioner is that we should develop our individual gifts and insights and contribute them to the chaos of creation inside a spiritually growing (evolving) society. I suppose we Mormons got off on the wrong track when we decided that Zionism *must* mean having only one set of thinking (mirroring the prophet) which is why we had such colorful years in 1866-69. Today we would laugh at the idea of the church leadership attempting to make everyone think the same or threaten to abscond with the priesthood into the wilderness. I hope we re-think our Zion-concept soon because this current group-think obsession is not good for us and certainly not good for our national discourse on violence.
